What’s stopping us from having the sex we want?
In Free Sex, Adam Zmith speaks to a different guest every episode to ask what a world of free sex would look like. In hearing from kinksters, sexual health doctors, writers, sex workers, therapists — and anyone with a fresh perspective on sex — Adam is building an image for a future where we are not held back in sex.
Free Sex is produced by the provocative and groundbreaking team at Aunt Nell, producers of The Log Books (British Podcast Awards Gold winner for Best New Podcast) and Black And Gay, Back In The Day. It is an inclusive podcast produced by a queer team, with respect to all genders, sexualities and LGBTQI+ identities. From mild to wild, everyone is welcome.
